The ideal combination to support energy production and muscle function Promotes physical and mental relaxation

A balanced diet that provides the body with sufficient vitamins, minerals and trace elements is essential for staying healthy and feeling good.

Magnesium is a vital mineral. It participates in the building of bones and is required in many enzymatic reactions, some of which are crucial for the metabolism of carbohydrates and proteins. Magnesium also plays an important role in the transmission of nerve impulses to the muscles as well as in muscle relaxation. That is why taking magnesium is recommended for relieving muscle cramps.

Equally important, the B vitamins, including vitamins B1, B6, B12 and folic acid, optimize the yields of energy production from food, support the metabolism and function of muscle and nerve cells and protect the cardiovascular system from the harmful effects of homocysteine.

Magnesium is normally eliminated through sweat and through the urine. Sustained sporting activity, significant physical exertion and the consumption of diuretic drugs or drinks such as coffee and tea can cause a significant loss of magnesium. If this loss is not compensated for, it leads to a magnesium deficiency which first results in physical and nervous fatigue and muscle weakness. As the deficiency progresses, the excitability of muscle cells increases and can cause involuntary muscle contractions, severe cramps and heart arrhythmias.

To avoid these disorders it is advisable to frequently consume foods rich in magnesium. However, these are poorly represented in our modern diet, which favors processed and refined foods over fresh produce.

Taking just one Doppelherz® aktiv 400 mg tablet daily helps meet the body's needs for magnesium and B vitamins, which are important for the healthy functioning of the heart, muscles and nerves.
